Ashton Jeanty's Injury Affects Fantasy Football Rankings Ahead of NFL Preseason

The NFL's shift towards joint practices and reduced starter participation in the preseason has led to fewer significant changes in Fantasy Football projections. However, injuries to players like Ashton Jeanty, Jayden Higgins, and Alvin Kamara have prompted notable adjustments in rankings.

Ashton Jeanty left practice with an unspecified injury, causing uncertainty about his status for the upcoming season. His backup, Mike Washington Jr., has performed well in the preseason, potentially making him a valuable pick if Jeanty's injury is serious. Meanwhile, Higgins' absence has elevated Nico Collins' target share, making him a Round 2 pick in full PPR leagues.

Dalton Schultz has also seen a rise in his ranking, now considered a borderline top-12 tight end. The situation for Tyrone Tracy has worsened with the acquisition of Harris, who may complicate Tracy's role on the team. Additionally, Travis Etienne's ranking has improved due to Kamara's uncertain availability, positioning him as a top-12 running back.
